Turner received dozens of videos from applicants, who ranged from students looking for part-time work to a retired teacher who danced and recited a poem about her qualifications.

Ugly Christmas Sweater Shop first opened for business in Dallas several years ago. This year, Turner has opened pop-up shops in Frisco and Fort Worth. His inventory contains more than 10,000 vintage ugly Christmas sweaters.

"I love Christmas," turner added. "I'm into authentic sweaters. These were never intended to be ugly, they were intended to be pretty."
